Transportable NPP with Open and Closed Gas-Turbine Cycle

Аннотация

Information on advancements made in small transportable NPP with HTGR and gas-turbine cycles as the source of energy for supplying electricity and heat in remote regions is presented and the possibility of their development at the current stage is analyzed. This pertains especially to the remote regions of the Far North with extreme climatic conditions: ambient air temperature –50–35°C in the absence of water for dumping unused heat. The possibilities of developing a small transportable nuclear power plant based on schematic and structural engineering studies performed at OKBM Afrikantov with high-temperature gas-cooled reactor and different variants of energy conversion systems are analyzed.
